get api key, 这是deeplearning.ai封装好的函数utils

# get api key
utils = Utils()
PINECONE_API_KEY = utils.get_pinecone_api_key()

Setup Pinecone

pinecone = Pinecone(api_key=PINECONE_API_KEY)utils = Utils()
INDEX_NAME = utils.create_dlai_index_name('dl-ai')
if INDEX_NAME in [index.name for index in pinecone.list_indexes()]:pinecone.delete_index(INDEX_NAME)pinecone.create_index(name=INDEX_NAME, dimension=1536, metric='cosine',spec=ServerlessSpec(cloud='aws', region='us-west-2'))index = pinecone.Index(INDEX_NAME)

Load the Dataset

(Note: max_articles_num = 500): To achieve a more comprehensive context for the Language Learning Model, a larger number of articles is generally more beneficial. In this lab, we've initially set max_articles_num to 500 for speedier results, allowing you to observe the outcomes faster. Once you've done an initial run, consider increasing this value to 750 or 1,000. You'll likely notice that the context provided to the LLM becomes richer and better. You can experiment by gradually raising this variable for different queries to observe the improvements in the LLM's contextual understanding.

max_articles_num = 500
df = pd.read_csv('./data/wiki.csv', nrows=max_articles_num)
df.head()

Output

Prepare the Embeddings and Upsert to Pinecone

prepped = []for i, row in tqdm(df.iterrows(), total=df.shape[0]):meta = ast.literal_eval(row['metadata']) # 转换为 Python 对象prepped.append({'id':row['id'], 'values':ast.literal_eval(row['values']), 'metadata':meta})  # 字典if len(prepped) >= 250:index.upsert(prepped) # 插入到pinecone索引中prepped = []

这段代码的作用是将 DataFrame (df) 中的数据批量预处理，并将预处理后的数据插入到 Pinecone 索引中。让我们逐行解释代码：

1. prepped = []: 创建一个空列表 prepped，用于存储预处理后的数据。

2. for i, row in tqdm(df.iterrows(), total=df.shape[0]):: 使用 iterrows() 方法遍历 DataFrame (df) 中的每一行数据，并使用 tqdm() 函数创建一个进度条来显示处理进度。total=df.shape[0] 用于指定总共要处理的行数。

3. meta = ast.literal_eval(row['metadata']): 从当前行中获取 ‘metadata’ 列的值，并使用 ast.literal_eval() 函数将其转换为 Python 对象。这个列通常包含一些元数据信息。

4. prepped.append({'id':row['id'], 'values':ast.literal_eval(row['values']), 'metadata':meta}): 将当前行的 ‘id’、‘values’ 和 ‘metadata’ 列的值以字典形式添加到 prepped 列表中。ast.literal_eval() 函数用于安全地将字符串形式的 Python 表达式转换为对应的对象。

5. if len(prepped) >= 250:: 检查 prepped 列表的长度是否达到了 250。如果达到了，则执行下面的操作。

6. index.upsert(prepped): 将 prepped 列表中的数据批量插入到 Pinecone 索引中。upsert() 方法用于向索引中添加或更新数据。

7. prepped = []: 将 prepped 列表重置为空，以便存储下一个批次的预处理数据。

总的来说，这段代码对 DataFrame 中的数据进行了逐行处理，将每一行数据转换成包含 ‘id’、‘values’ 和 ‘metadata’ 字段的字典，然后将这些字典组成的列表批量插入到 Pinecone 索引中。

index.describe_index_stats()

Output

{'dimension': 1536,'index_fullness': 0.0,'namespaces': {'': {'vector_count': 500}},'total_vector_count': 500}

Connect to OpenAI

OPENAI_API_KEY = utils.get_openai_api_key() # 具体函数实现见笔记1
openai_client = OpenAI(api_key=OPENAI_API_KEY)def get_embeddings(articles, model="text-embedding-ada-002"):return openai_client.embeddings.create(input = articles, model=model)

Run Your Query

query = "what is the berlin wall?"embed = get_embeddings([query])
res = index.query(vector=embed.data[0].embedding, top_k=3, include_metadata=True)
text = [r['metadata']['text'] for r in res['matches']]
print('\n'.join(text))

对上文text = [r['metadata']['text'] for r in res['matches']]中r的解释：

在上述代码中，r 表示查询结果中的每个匹配项。让我们用一个示例来说明其作用。

假设我们有一个文本嵌入索引，其中包含了一些城市的文本描述以及对应的嵌入向量。当我们对这个索引进行查询时，我们得到了一些与查询向量最相似的匹配项。

例如，假设我们的索引中有以下一些匹配项：

[{'vector': [0.1, 0.2, 0.3], 'metadata': {'city': 'Berlin', 'text': 'Berlin is the capital of Germany.'}},{'vector': [0.2, 0.3, 0.4], 'metadata': {'city': 'Paris', 'text': 'Paris is the capital of France.'}},{'vector': [0.3, 0.4, 0.5], 'metadata': {'city': 'London', 'text': 'London is the capital of the United Kingdom.'}}]

在这个例子中，r 表示查询结果中的每个匹配项。每个匹配项都是一个字典，包含了向量 (vector) 和元数据 (metadata) 两个键。metadata 中包含了与匹配项相关的元数据信息，比如城市名称和文本描述。

如果我们想要提取每个匹配项的文本描述，我们可以通过访问 r['metadata']['text'] 来获取，这样就能得到每个匹配项的文本描述。

Egon Krenz was elected by the politburo to be Honecker's successor. Krenz tried to show that he was looking for change within the GDR but the citizens did not trust him. On November 9, 1989, the SED announced that East Germans would be able to travel to West Berlin the next day. The spokesman who announced the new travel law incorrectly said that it would take effect immediately, implying the Berlin Wall would open that night. People began to gather at border checkpoints at the wall hoping to be let through, but the guards told them that they had no orders to let citizens through. As the number of people grew, the guards became alarmed and tried to contact their superiors but had no responses. Unwilling to use force, the chief guard at the checkpoint relented at 10:54pm and ordered the gate to be opened. Thousands of East-Germans swarmed into West Berlin and the purpose of the wall was deemed now obsolete. The fall of the wall destroyed the SED politically as well as the career of its leader, Egon Krenz. On December 1, 1989, the GDR government revoked the law that guaranteed the SED the right to rule the East German political system, effectively ending communist rule in the GDR.On 18 March 1990, there were free elections in the GDR. The "Alliance for Germany", a group of political parties who wanted to unify the GDR with West Germany, won that election. This process, when East Germany was taken over by the West, is known also the Wende in Germany.

The German Democratic Republic (GDR) ( (DDR)), commonly called East Germany (), was founded on 7 October 1949, after World War II. It was formed from part of the Soviet occupation zone of Germany, including part of the city of Berlin. It is no longer a nation by itself since the two parts of Germany, East Germany and West Germany, reunified in 1990.The GDR was ruled by the Socialist Unity Party of Germany (SED).History 
After World War II, the four Allied Occupation Zones in Germany were each controlled by a different country. The countries that controlled these parts of Germany were France, the United Kingdom, the United States, and the Soviet Union. The French, American, and British parts of Germany formed West Germany (the Bundesrepublik). Part of the Soviet section became East Germany, and other parts became western Poland and small parts of other countries.Walter Ulbricht, the head of the SED, also had a lot of power. Pieck died in 1960, and Ulbricht became "Chairman of the State Council". Now he was really the head of state.On 13 August 1961, the Berlin Wall was built.  Many people were shot dead by East German soldiers when they tried to escape the GDR.  According to the SED this was to make it hard for American spies to use West Berlin as a place to work from, but it also made it hard for normal people to move between east and west.
History 1244 The first writings about a place called Berlin.1451 The Hohenzollern family moved to Berlin as the place to rule their country1618 – 48 After the Thirty Years' War in Germany, the number of people that lived in Berlin dropped to only 6000.1701 Berlin became capital of Prussia.1709 Berlin and its neighbor city Cölln (not Köln/Cologne) are combined to form the new Berlin.1806 The army of Napoleon Bonaparte moved into Berlin.1871 Berlin became capital of the German Empire.1920 The Old Berlin and some neighbour towns are combined into "Greater Berlin" (Groß-Berlin).1945 The town is divided into four sectors, used by the allies of World War II. There is a Soviet Sector, an American Sector, a British Sector and a French Sector.1949 After foundation of the two Germanies, the town is still divided. There is now West Berlin and East Berlin.1961 The Berlin Wall was built by the communist government of East Germany between the two halves of Berlin.1990 After German reunification, the Berlin Wall is torn down, and there is only one Berlin again. The new Berlin becomes the capital of one Germany.2001 23 boroughs of Berlin were changed into 122006 FIFA World Cup Final held at OlympiastadionPeople In 2018, Berlin had 3.75 million registered inhabitants in an area of . The city's population density was 4,206 inhabitants per km2. Berlin is the most populous city in Germany an the European Union. The entire Berlin-Brandenburg capital region has a population of more than 6 million in an area of . More than 2.0 million households were counted in the city. Around 60 percent of them were single-person households.

Many local foods originated from north German culinary traditions and include rustic and hearty dishes with pork, goose, fish, peas, beans, cucumbers, or potatoes. Typical Berliner fare include popular street food like the Currywurst Buletten (meat balls) and the Berliner doughnut, known in Berlin as . German bakeries offering a variety of breads and pastries are widespread. One of Europe's largest delicatessen market is found at the department store KaDeWe. Among the world's largest chocolate stores is Fassbender & Rausch.Berlin is also home to a diverse gastronomy scene reflecting the immigrant history of the city. Immigrants brought their culinary traditions to the city, such as the modern fast-food version of the doner kebab. Asian cuisine like Chinese, Vietnamese, Thai, Indian, Korean, and Japanese restaurants, as well as Spanish tapas bars, Italian, and Greek cuisine, can be found in many parts of the city.Economy
There are more than 20 communities with a population of at least 10,000 people in 2019, including German, Turkish, Polish, Syrian, Italian, Bulgarian, Russian, Lebanese, Palestinian, Serbian, Bosnian, Vietnamese, American, Romanian, Croatian, Chinese, Austrian, Ukrainian, French, British, Spanish, Israeli, Indian and Iranian communities.In 2019, there were 777,345 registered residents of foreign nationality and another 542,975 German citizens with a "migration background", meaning they or one of their parents immigrated to Germany after 1955. Berlin residents originate from about 190 different countries.GeographyBerlin is in northeastern Germany, in an area of low-lying marshy woodlands with a mainly flat terrain. It is part of the Northern European Plain. The river Spree and Havel are the two main rivers in the city. In Spandau, a borough in the west of Berlin, the Spree empties into the river Havel, which flows from north to south through western Berlin. The largest lakes being the Tegeler See, the Großer Wannsee and the Großer Müggelsee.The Arkenberge hills in Pankow at  elevation are the highest point in Berlin. The Müggelberge (mountains) at  elevation is the highest natural point and the lowest is the Spektesee in Spandau, at  elevation.Boroughs Charlottenburg-WilmersdorfFriedrichshain-KreuzbergLichtenberg-HohenschönhausenMarzahn-HellersdorfMitte (Central)NeuköllnPankowReinickendorfSpandauSteglitz-ZehlendorfTempelhof-SchönebergTreptow-KöpenickEducation
In the German reunification, the GDR joined West Germany by approving its constitution in 1990. The East German districts were reorganised into the Länder (Berlin, Brandenburg, Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Sachsen, Sachsen-Anhalt and Thüringen) and joined West Germany, after which the GDR ceased to exist. Fidel Castro had long ago renamed the small Cuban island of Cayo Blanco del Sur and one of its beaches in honor of the GDR, though it remained part of Cuba.Even though the western and the eastern part joined back together in 1990, people from former West Germany still call people from East Germany "Ossi". This comes from the German word "Osten" which means "East". Ossi is not always meant kindly.After the reunification, many people became angry because the new government was from the west and didn't like East Germany. They closed down lots of the places people worked and tried to make it look like East Germany never existed. This made lots of people lose their jobs and become poor. Today lots of people who used to live in East Germany want it to come back. This is called "Ostalgie", which means "East nostalgia".
EconomyIn 2018, the GDP of Berlin totaled €147 billion. The city is the largest metropolitan economy in Germany and the third largest in the European Union. Berlin's economy is dominated by the service sector, with around 85% of all companies doing business in services. In 2019, the total labor force in Berlin was about 2.0 million. Important economic sectors in Berlin include life sciences, transportation, information and communication technologies, media and music, advertising and design, biotechnology, environmental services, construction, e-commerce, retail, hotel business, and medical engineering.Research and development are important for the city. Berlin is part of the Eurozone.Sister cities 
Berlin has partnerships with 17 cities. Each of the 12 boroughs also has their sister cities, sometimes called twin cities.ReferencesOther websites - Official page www.berlin.deBerlin Sightseeing ToursEXBERLINER - English City MagazineBerlin City Panoramas - Panoramic Views and virtual Tours of BerlinOlympic cities

In the city of Leipzig, people met every Monday and demonstrated, and so these demonstrations are called Montagsdemonstrationen ("Monday Demonstrations"). Erich Honecker wished that the Soviets would use its army to suppress these demonstrations.

print(res.choices[0].text)

这段代码使用了 OpenAI API 客户端，向 GPT-3.5 Turbo Instruct 模型发出一个文本生成的请求，并获取生成的文本结果。

让我们逐行解释代码：

1. res = openai_client.completions.create(...): 这一行代码通过 OpenAI API 客户端向 GPT-3.5 Turbo Instruct 模型发出一个文本生成请求。具体来说，它使用了 completions.create() 方法来创建一个文本完成任务。传递给这个方法的参数包括：

   • model="gpt-3.5-turbo-instruct"：指定了要使用的模型，这里是 GPT-3.5 Turbo Instruct。
   • prompt=prompt：给定了一个提示文本，作为模型生成文本的起点。
   • temperature=0：设置了温度参数为 0，这将导致模型生成的文本更加确定性和精确。
   • max_tokens=636：限制了生成文本的最大长度为 636 个 token。
   • top_p=1：设置了 top-p 参数为 1，这表示模型在生成文本时将考虑所有概率大于等于给定阈值的 token。
   • frequency_penalty=0 和 presence_penalty=0：设置了频率惩罚和存在性惩罚的值为 0，这意味着模型不会对 token 的频率和存在性进行惩罚。
   • stop=None：没有设置停止词，生成的文本将在达到最大长度后自动终止。

2. print('-' * 80): 打印了一个由 ‘-’ 字符构成的分隔线，用于将不同的生成结果分隔开来。

3. print(res.choices[0].text): 打印了生成文本的内容。res.choices[0].text 表示从 API 响应中获取第一个候选项的文本内容，并打印出来。

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------The Berlin Wall was a physical barrier that divided the city of Berlin, Germany from 1961 to 1989. It was built by the communist government of East Germany, also known as the German Democratic Republic (GDR), to prevent its citizens from fleeing to the democratic West Germany. The wall was a symbol of the Cold War and the division between the communist and capitalist ideologies.The construction of the wall began on August 13, 1961, and it consisted of a concrete wall, barbed wire, and guard towers. The wall stretched for 96 miles, dividing the city into East and West Berlin. The East side was controlled by the Soviet Union and the West side by the United States, Great Britain, and France.The purpose of the wall was to prevent East Germans from escaping to the West, where they could enjoy more freedom and a better standard of living. The GDR government claimed that the wall was built to protect its citizens from Western imperialism and fascism. However, the real reason was to stop the mass exodus of skilled workers and professionals, which was causing economic problems for the GDR.The wall was heavily guarded, and anyone caught trying to escape faced severe consequences, including imprisonment or even death. Despite the risks, many East Germans attempted to cross the wall, and over 5,000 people were successful in doing so. However, over 100 people lost their lives while trying to escape.The fall of the Berlin Wall on November 9, 1989, marked the end of the Cold War and the beginning of German reunification. The announcement of new travel laws by the East German government led to a misunderstanding, and thousands of East Germans gathered at the wall, demanding to be let through. The guards, overwhelmed by the crowd, eventually opened the gates, and people from both sides of the wall celebrated together.The fall of the wall was a significant event in history, symbolizing the end of communist rule in Eastern Europe and the reunification of Germany. Today, only a few sections of the wall remain as a reminder of the division that once existed in Berlin. The Berlin Wall serves as a powerful reminder of the consequences of political division and the importance of freedom and unity.
